Dining Recommendations

[3Minnies1Mickey]

I know, I know...not another one!!

Okay here's the scenario: 2 weeks in early September: 1 at BCV and 1 at OKW
2 adults, 4 children ages 9 (almost 10), 6.5, and 2 (almost 3 and a decent eater)
I'm looking at either upgrading 1 MYW ticket to an AP and getting the TIW card OR getting the DDP for both weeks.

Most of what I know I want are buffets or AYCE meals since it'll bridge the gap with my oldest's taste and appetite without upgrading her to an adult, plus I can feed the youngest without purchasing an additional meal. Also, I hate character meet lines so we'll be doing several character meals, plus Cafe May Dinner while we are at BCV.

TS menu restaurants I'm interested include: WCC, Le Cellier (lunch), Teppan Edo and Narcoossee's. Any other suggestions, I'm looking at my list and the buffets are taking OVER!!!! I'm also considering paying OOP (if on the DDP) for extra TS meals (most likely just appetizers and kids meals) so if you have any suggestions for this type of eating that'd be great too!

Hi Shannon!!

I agree we'd much rather do the character meals than wait in the caracter meet 'n' greet lines.

Well, the character meals/buffets we really enjoy are:

Ohana's breakfast, while not a buffet they will keep bringing you more food. It has Stitch, Lilo, Mickey, etc. This one is a must do for us every time, plus you can dine there early on a MK day and take the monorail!

Crystal Palace is fun though we don't have ressies ther this trip. Lot's of good food and if you make an early am ADr you get into the parks before it's open to the public.

Cape May Cafe is good too I would keep that one. I have also heard great things about Tusker House and 1900 Park Fare but we are trying these for the first time in 11 days!!!!!

We love Le Cellier but always go for dinner, not sure now though as it's about to become 2 TS.

Teppan Edo is one my kids love. We are doing it again this trip. You get quite a bit of good food and it's so much fun to watch the show as they are cooking your dinner. It 's also entertaining to watch the sushi-making before they seat you.

We've done Narcossee's but it was just okay for us, maybe we hit them on a bad night. I really though our 1 TS Le Cellier was quite a bit better than our 2 TS Narcossee's, although their Almond Crusted Cheesecake is to DIE for!!!

My family consists of big eaters and we love to dine at Disney so we always get the dining plan! It's a good deal if you plan your ADR's out to get the most of it. Plus you can pay for your dining ahead of time.

Whatever your decide have a great trip!!!

Any suggestions for TS meals with actual menus I should look at? I realize I'll may have to order a meal for the 2 year old, but right now we have 75% of our meals at buffets and that will most likely get tiring.
